Synopsis:
Snoop Dog is an original play inspired by Saadat Hasan Manto's short story, The Dog of Tithwal. The play follows the fate of an unassuming stray mongrel that gets caught in the crossfire of two staunchly opposed rival camps of vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Each camp plots viciously to lure the dog to their side, wanting to make a citizen out of him. This darkly comedic satire uses exaggerations, caricatures, songs, situations and objects to jibe at everyday-prejudices and discrimination based on food habits. Using the languages of Hindi and English, Snoop Dog is a socio-political satire on brazen intolerance and jingoistic patriotism.
